I hope that it does. I ordered the DVD so I can see WDW. If I wanted to see DisneyLand, I would have ordered a DisneyLand DVD. A section on DisneyLand on the WDW DVD is just a waste of time that could be better spent focusing on WDW. Just my opinion, of course.

Well I'm pretty sure this DVD is a "Disney Parks" planning video that is supposed to cover at least both US resorts. There is only one DVD available as far as I know.

We finally got to watch it last night, and thought it was ok. We liked the people and CM comments, but thought they should have included a little more on the parks, it seems a little sketchy. We ended up watching the section on kids, and at first my two kids were like we don't want to watch this, but they ended up loving it.
They do show the Yeti, but it's just a couple of quick glimpses and then one short full on.

Ok Guys, I need your help. If you notice the post before mine from Bates1960, you'll see this member wants to know about CM comments and especially one from a Space Mountain CM. That's because he is the Space Member CM. He is my boyfriend is fishing for compliments here, lol. He has a super big ego because he was chosen to be in the video. So, shh dont tell him I told you to, but please post and say how professional, handsome, articulate, etc he is:hurl: . I'll show him the post and skip over mine. I know I'm new to these posts, but help me out PRETTY PLEASE! :lol:

I just got my planning video in the mail and I am extremely happy to give some good news. The format has been returned to the classic way of presenting the parks. That's right, no more annoying characters and "cool" graphics. This is something that actually makes you want to go to the parks and I think this is the single best planning video they have ever made. The Disneyland portion was excellent as well. They were not shortchanged and I got to see a lot of stuff to get me excited about my trip there in June.
Disney has knocked one out of the park with this one. Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking the old format back and then plussing it a great deal. It is safe to put away your old videos for now because this is the one you'll want to watch over and over.
Maybe they'll have a similar change over on Resort TV in the rooms

I agree that it is an excellent DVD! I've only watched the WDW portion so far, but it's great!

I actually didn't enjoy it as much as last years. It just didn't seem to have that personal touch to me. Funny, my favorite part was the for kids part on the WDW version since it had the kids talking about the rides as they got off of them. That made me feel like I was in the park a lot more than a narrator telling me about the parks.
I'm not saying this was a bad one. It does its job and it does it well and I really enjoyed having the Disneyland portion on it too. In fact as I was watching it with my wife she just kept saying, "I want to go to Orlando." That means the dvd works. So I can't complain. For me I just didn't get that personal, in the park feeling I got from the last one. It was like someone was talking at me and not to me. But that's just me.
Speaking of past park dvd's. I've started my collection with last years and this years and plan to get one every year and keep them. I'd love to find some of the older ones for sell somewhere. Does anybody know anywhere that I can find these old planning dvd's for years past or does anybody have any old ones they don't mind parting with?

I have to agree. I like feeling like I'm in the parks. And to me...this one did feel like it was talking at me...not to me. I didn't feel connected. I was just thinking...ooh...look at the pretty rides...but with the kids part...I was like...man, I wanna ride that! That's probably why I liked last years video more. Because you got to "ride" the rides with them. You got to feel and see what they were feeling and seeing.

Well, well, well. Guess what I found in my mailbox when I got home this evening?
I haven't watched it all yet but I like what I see. While it is a more straightforward delivery, the hosts aren't the "personalities" of the DVD; The parks themselves are the "personalities", which I like.

I got mine yesterday as well...
I must admit, this dvd is a lot more calming the the previous years...
I do agree with some others on here though, I felt like something was missing on this dvd.
I also found that I missed having all of the information presented at once, for example...
They describe the theme parks, but you have to select another feature on the dvd to watch the water parks section of the dvd...
The dvd looks great, but found it a little oh hum...
